issues

MCS bloggers!  We all need moments of "something other than reality".  Last night I watched an old movie on TCM and it was refreshing to put myself back into my childhood for a couple of hours and not think about the overwhelming life of today.  I would bet (not at the OPKC however) but just here amongst ourselves, that we all have a favorite movie or two or three.  If you could view your absolute favorite movies at the perfect venue (drive in, Jax beach outside theatre, home) - which would they be and where would you prefer to watch - and with whom?  This is not a test - just thought I'd start a lighter thread (and help us get to know each other even more).

All of you guys seem to have a lot of knowledge and contacts so I'm throwing out a request for your assistance to help end the cycle of foster care.   As a volunteer, I am working with a 17 year old, recent run-a-way, who has just been returned to foster care from which she ran-away.  She is new to foster care.  She is 9 weeks pregnant with little education and has a checkered past.  Even though she is new to foster care, she will age out of the foster care system the end of November when she turns 18.  She has virtually no support from any family member.  Given all of this, she seems to have turned herself around, admitted her past issues, and has goals of getting her GED, a job, and making a life for herself and her baby.  She is currently on bed rest from her doctor because of problems with this pregnancy.
